Grave yard look up please
« on: Tuesday 07 March 17 18:32 GMT (UK) »
Samuel Hurrell, b c 1870 in Great Wratting. Can't find his death.  1911 census he is living Honington and sapiston, also his wife Eliza.  Death also unsure but possibly 1958.  Also his father Thomas Hurrell 1870, death Unknown.   Barnardiston, and wife Eliza, 1843.

There are plenty of Hurrells in this area and nearby villages.  Would anyone be able to keep an eye out for the above if visiting these graveyards ?  I would be very grateful.

Regards

Check your births.
Father and son cannot both have been born 1870.

Samuel Hurrell, b c 1870 in Great Wratting.
Can't find his death. 

I can't find his death either  ???

Have you done a free search on the 1939 register to see if he's on there?

Not that this helps with Samuel's death but son Archie is buried
St Mary's Church Weeting
Breckland Borough
Norfolk, England

his father Thomas Hurrell 1870, death Unknown.   
Barnardiston, and wife Eliza, 1843.


1901 census RG13; Piece: 1737; Folio: 67; Page: 4
Thomas Hurrell's yob given as 1845 Barnardiston, Suffolk
Elizabeth yob 1844 Great Wratting, Suffolk, England

Have you found either Thomas or Elizabeth on 1911 census?

There are these death entries which are a close match to yob

Deaths Jun 1907 Risbridge 4a 441

Thomas HURRELL  died age 62 (1845)

and

Deaths Sep 1933 Risbridge 4a 797

Elizabeth Hurrell age 90 (1843)

If this is the correct son for Thomas & Elizabeth, I'm assuming his father has died before 1915 as
his mother is named as next of kin

Document Year:   1915
Residence Place:   Bable Green, Hundon Clare
Regimental Number:   108110
Regiment Name:   Army Service Corps (Horse Transport)
Number of Images:   6

Next of kin mother
Elizabeth Hurrell, Bubble Green Hundon near Clare Suffolk

There is a death notice in Bury Free Press 18 July 1942 for a Major Samuel Hurrell age 73 (b. 1869) at Brandon.

By doing a free 1939 register search there is a Major S Hurrell b. 1868 living with Eliza b. 1871

Did Samuel marry an Eliza Cornwall as there is a birth record of a Lewis Hurrell b. 1916, Thetford, mother's maiden name Cornwall. Again by doing a free search on the 1939 it would appear that Lewis is living with Major S Hurrell with two more people, one of which is closed.

Could it be that Samuel's birth was actually registered as Major Hurrell -
